LGG2Z681MELA30

The LGG2Z681MELA30 is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LGG series. It delivers 680 µF capacitance at a 180 V rating in a compact snap‑in radial can designed for board‑level power assemblies.

Engineered for general‑purpose applications, this part provides high ripple current capability, extended high‑temperature endurance, and a compact footprint suitable for equipment downsizing where reliable DC filtering and energy buffering are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 680 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 180 V and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Ripple Current Performance: Supports 1.7 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.55 A at 100 kHz (high frequency), enabling effective ripple handling in power circuits.
• Temperature & Endurance: Operates from −40°C to +105°C with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 105°C under rated DC bias plus rated ripple current.
• Leakage & Loss: Low leakage current (specified 1.04 mA for this part) and specified tan δ limits per rated voltage categories.
• Compact Snap‑in Package: Radial, snap‑in can package (φ25 × 30 mm) for secure board mounting and reduced assembly time; designed as an ultra‑smaller‑sized snap‑in type within the LGG family.
• RoHS Compliant: Manufactured to meet RoHS directive requirements.

Typical Applications

• General‑purpose power modules: Provides bulk capacitance and filtering where 680 µF at 180 V is required in board‑level power assemblies.
• Compact power supplies: Suited for equipment downsizing thanks to the LGG series’ smaller case size compared with previous generations.
• High‑temperature operating environments: Intended for designs that require continuous operation up to 105°C and 2000 hours of endurance under rated conditions.
• Snap‑in board assemblies: Snap‑in terminal mounting facilitates secure placement in rackable or PCB power assemblies needing robust mechanical retention.

Unique Advantages

• Compact footprint: φ25 × 30 mm snap‑in can reduces board space while delivering substantial capacitance for power circuits.
• High ripple capability: 1.7 A (120 Hz) and 2.55 A (100 kHz) ripple ratings support demanding AC ripple conditions and improve voltage stability.
• Extended high‑temperature life: 2000 hours endurance at 105°C under rated conditions helps maintain capacitance and reliability in elevated temperature applications.
• Wide operating range: −40°C to +105°C operating temperature supports diverse environmental conditions without specification changes.
• Measured low leakage: Specified leakage current of 1.04 mA for this part number helps minimize standby losses in power systems.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in assemblies requiring restricted‑substance conformance.
